Emergency Contacts
TeteNational emergency numbers in Mozambique are three-digit codes. For police, dial 119; ambulance, 117; fire brigade, 198. In Tete, local coverage can be patchy, so also note the provincial police station on Avenida 25 de Setembro (close to the city centre) – no direct number listed reliably. For medical issues, the Hospital Provincial de Tete (Avenida das FPLM) is the main public facility; private clinics like Clinica do Tete may offer quicker help but are costly. Register with your embassy; the British High Commission in Maputo (+258 21 356 000) handles emergencies for UK nationals, and the US Embassy (+258 21 49 2000) for Americans. Carry a local SIM: Movitel has better rural reach in Tete province. Dial 112 from any phone for general emergency coordination, though it’s not always answered promptly in Tete.
💡 Save these numbers in your phone. In life-threatening emergencies, call immediately.
Where to Eat
💡 Booking tip: For popular restaurants in Tete, book at least a week ahead — especially for weekend evenings and during festival season.
